I love Christmas time

Sabree wore her Christmas dress to church today.  Isn't she pretty?  I love pics in front of the Christmas tree!

A Night in Bethlehem

Our ward Christmas party was A Night in Bethlehem.  We all dressed up like bibical people and had a wonderful time walking around the market, buying food, and drinks, and doing activities like beading, making ornaments, and playing dredel, and then we sat on the floor on our blanket and witnessed the birth of the Savior.  It was a very nice evening.

On to the next holiday

Turkey is gone, so now it is time to put up the Christmas tree.  Dave is headed out of town for meetings in the morning, so we had to get the tree up before he went.  The boys and I will decorate while Daddy is gone, but for now we have a beautiful tree in the house.  This is our first year with an artificial tree, but I really like it so far!  These are pics of our branch fluffers...

Happy Thanksgiving

This year we were lucky to just stay home and have family come to us.  Grandpa & Grandma, Uncle Mitch and Aunt Cami, and Uncle J & Aunt Dawn and Mads, Avery, and Drew came to visit on Wednesday afternoon and stayed until Sunday bright and early.

We had such a fun time playing and laughing and eating and coloring and eating and playing games and going to the Temple to do sealings and going shopping and the men went shooting and we ate some more and napped and watched movies and ate and played more games and stayed up late and ate and had so much fun!!!

 We missed Amanda this year as she is on her mission, and it appears that this might be the last year Cami is a single Aunt at our holiday festivities as well.  That's okay, the more the merrier!

Sabree Photoshoot

Aunt Mandy worked her magic again.  Here are a few of the best.  {Truth be told I am still waiting for her to finish editing the others :)}

Sabree is 5 1/2 months.

Little Helpers

Braden is obsessed lately with watching TV, so it sometimes takes some creativity to get him to do something else.  Cooking is a good way to get him involved, and Sabree loves to help too.
